tarpon lake foggy morning

Fished out of Anderson park. Fished 9am-1pm. Foggy and calm wind to start. Later becoming ssw wind 5-10. Always try to try with the wind. Longline trolled all the northwest and north part of lake in 9-11 fow. Water temp 64. Air temp started in the 60's warming to 70's by afternoon. Became partly cloudy by afternoon. Had good action trolling 1.0-1.3 mph. Fish were only 1-2 ft below surface to start out. Caught about 50 and kept 25 between 10 and 13 1/2 inches. This trip caught half the fish on double jigs rigs and half on beetlespin. Best colors were chartruese, black and blue. There were a fair amount of fishin boats out and was checked by fish and wildlife for creel census data. Grateful for another fun day on Tarpon. Good luck.

Forget to say that trip was on Monday the 23rd and always try to troll with the wind if possible.

Glad to see another long liner on here. Good lookin catch, sounds like the same senario I had Sat. And Sun. On Lake Toho.
